SSURGO-grade site characterization.

A geotechnical investigation starts with a desk study, and the desk study starts with soil. Bearing capacity, shrink-swell, depth to rock and drainage shape foundation design before a single boring. We give civil and geotech teams the measured soil profile for any parcel instantly, so the field program is targeted instead of blind.

Site characterization

Weighted toward bearing capacity, shrink-swell, and depth to restriction: the drivers of foundation design.

Same six measured factors. The weighting changes, the score changes, the customer changes. One database underneath.

How the score is built

Site characterization score

The same factor stack, reweighted toward what governs foundations and earthwork, scored for any parcel before you mobilize a drill rig.

Reweighted toward
  • Bearing & engineering classification
  • Shrink-swell potential (LEP)
  • Depth to restrictive layer
  • Drainage class
